Abstract

enThis memoir begins with an analysis of Crickillon's poetic project. The main principles of this are developed, such as his relationship with silence, his marginal position in relation to society, and his approach to writing articulated in two movements: revolt and escape. These characteristics are all complementary, enabling the poet to create a complex, coherent project. This project, once developed, supports the analysis of "L'Indien de La Gare du Nord". The second chapter shows how silence, margin, revolt and escape are found both thematically and formally in the work. As a collection focused on revolt through its mix of genres and registers, we analyze how the multiplicity of the author's writing serves both his revolt and his desire to escape. Part of this chapter is devoted to Ferry Crickillon, the initiator of his poetic language, which plays a major role in his work. The final chapter shows how Crickillon practices a poetry of discomfort, so that his reader can discern between his words his true objective: escape, emptiness and, therefore, the truth he will continue to seek in the rest of his work.
